They can pick Lipnitskaia for short program and Tuktamisheva for long program at team competition. Sotnikova maybe can skate short but I don't know. Short program much more important than long at team competition.

Julia would outscore Tuk in both programs, but Adelina could possible deliver a good SP because there are only 3 jumping passes so not as many chances to make mistakes as the LP, and she gets better PCS than Julia. I still think we have to see these ladies twice more (2nd GP and Nationals) before we can determine who will best represent Russia.
